Hi,
here’s a quick setup for Podium.
– Donwload and install Asio4all driver: http://asio4all.com/
– Start Podium. From the Setup menu choose Audio/MIDI. In the Audio tab, drop down the combo box and select Asio drivers. In the Asio interface combo box select ASIO4ALL.
– In the MIDI tab, select the input MIDI interface by checking the box of your keyboard (Axiom 49). Deselect all outputs.
– In the Control surfaces tab, make sure all the combo boxes are set with <None>.
– Click OK to apply the changes.
– If you haven’t yet a plugin database, go to the Setup menu and in the Plugins tab add a folder to be scanned. Click OK to apply the changes.
– In the project start page, from the drop down list select Rebuild and load plugin database.
– Again, in the project start page, click Create project to create a new Podium project.
– Add a new track in the sequencer. In the Source slot, select Toxic biohazard plugin and assign a preset.
– In the Input slot, select MIDI inputs -> MIDI In.
– Try to play some notes. You should hear the sound and you should see the midi indicator flashing for each note. The MIDI indicator is the icon at the right-bottom of the sequencer.
